rebuilt-next-s3

Simplify file uploads from your Next.js app to S3 and DigitalOcean Spaces.

Installation

npm install rebuilt-next-s3

yarn add rebuilt-next-s3

Environment Variables

You’ll need to set up the following environment variables for this package to work correctly:

REBUILT_S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your-access-key-id
REBUILT_S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your-secret-access-key
REBUILT_S3_REGION=your-region
REBUILT_S3_BUCKET_NAME=your-bucket-name

Refer to the Next.js documentation for more information on how to set up environment variables in your app. https://nextjs.org/docs/pages/building-your-application/configuring/environment-variables

S3 Bucket Setup

To use this package, you’ll need to create an S3 bucket and configure it to allow public access. Here are the steps to do that:

Create an S3 bucket

Go to the S3 Management Console and create a new bucket. Ensure the name matches the REBUILT_S3_BUCKET_NAME environment variable.

Bucket permissions

Once the bucket is created you'll need to go to the permissions tab and make sure that public access is not blocked.

Bucket policy

Next, you'll need to create a bucket policy that allows public access. Copy this policy and replace the BUCKET_NAME with your bucket name:

{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Sid": "Statement1",
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Principal": "*",
      "Action": "s3:GetObject",
      "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::BUCKET_NAME/*"
    }
  ]
}

CORS configuration

Next, you'll need to configure CORS to allow cross-origin requests.

IAM and API keys

Finally, you'll need to create an IAM user to get your ACCESS_KEY_ID and SECRET_ACCESS_KEY. You can do this by going to the IAM Management Console and creating a new user with programmatic access.

For the permissions step you'll need to add the following policy:

{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Sid": "Statement1",
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Action": [
        "s3:GetObject",
        "s3:PutObject"
      ],
      "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::BUCKET_NAME/*"
    }
  ]
}

Replace BUCKET_NAME with your bucket name.

Usage

Once you have set up the environment variables and configured the S3 bucket, you can use the useUpload hook to upload files to S3. Here's an example of how to use it:

import { useUpload } from "rebuilt-next-s3";

const MyComponent = () => {
  const { uploadFile, progress } = useUpload();

  const handleFileUpload = async (event: React.ChangeEvent<HTMLInputElement>) => {
    const file = event.target.files?.[0];
    if (file) {
      const response = await uploadFile(file);
      if (response.success) {
        console.log("File uploaded successfully:", response.src);
      } else {
        console.log("Error uploading file:", response.error);
      }
    }
  };

  return (
    <div>
      <input type="file" onChange={handleFileUpload} />
      {progress && (
        <div>
          Upload progress: {progress.progress}% ({progress.status})
        </div>
      )}
    </div>
  );
};
